ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PeopleOne Health, a trailblazer in value-based primary care, and RosenCare, a premier healthcare provider known for its cutting-edge healthcare solutions, today announced a partnership with Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) to deliver their award-winning healthcare services to OCPS employees and their families. This collaboration underscores OCPS's commitment to offering employees exceptional healthcare benefits and cost savings by keeping people healthier.
As part of this initiative, PeopleOne Health and RosenCare will open four new health centers across Orlando. In a state in which an additional 22,000 physicians will be needed by 2030 to address a growing physician shortage, these conveniently located centers will provide members with comprehensive, personalized healthcare, including primary care, chronic condition management, diagnostics, pharmacy services, pediatrics, mental health, weight management, and more.
A forward-thinking employer, OCPS selected PeopleOne Health and RosenCare for their proven healthcare model, which has consistently achieved top-tier employee satisfaction scores and demonstrated significant improvements in overall well-being. Employees will have access to appointments with a top-tier medical team with no out-of-pocket cost. By focusing on keeping people healthier, the model is also expected to generate significant savings for the school district.
"We are excited to partner with PeopleOne Health and RosenCare. It allows the district to provide a no-cost option of medical benefits for our employees,” said Dr. Maria Vazquez, Superintendent of Orange County Public Schools. “It also represents a major step towards setting a new standard in employee healthcare."
"We are honored to partner with OCPS on this transformative opportunity to bring best-in-class healthcare to employees and family members of the school district,” said Jordan Taradash, CEO of PeopleOne Health. “Our model of preventive, personalized care has consistently delivered healthier outcomes, and we are excited to deliver these benefits to the dedicated staff and families of OCPS. Together, we are creating a more sustainable future for the entire community."
